it wouldn't get us as much of a deficit reduction over 75 years, a chained c.p.i., but it would get us at least into a solvent condition if we increased the age rate. i just want to give you a note of history. when president reagan was facing the same issue and the senate was of -- the senate was one-party dominated and the house the other, he got house speaker tip o'neill together with minimum and they formed a commission, which started the increase in age, which we have today, because people live longer and they work longer. we can do the same thing that president reagan and tip o'neill did because it is the same configuration by coming together and acknowledging that people live longer and they work longer. and you can make accommodations for people who are in particularly physically strenuous jobs, which i think all of us understand "maybe," maybe are not able to work as long. you can do those things and fix this issue, mr. president, in a responsible way. let's do it now. one more year is going to make it that much worse. it was $2 trillion in just one year added to the deficit. w

people agree with us. and i suppose we're going to have to hear these speeches every day about how we're going to grow our way out of the deficits, we're going to grow our way out of the deficits, really. look what happened under george w. bush. he inherited surpluses, turned it into deficits as far as the eye can see with huge tax cuts to the millionaires and billionaires, huge. the very tax cuts our friends are defending right now. he did two wars on a credit card and we wound up in a mess. so we have to come together with the best ideas that we have, and i know we can reach agreement, but let us do the first step which is to take care of 98% of the people. the republicans want to have tax breaks for 100% of the people. we're saying can you take 98%? if i stopped you on the street and said i'm willing to give you 98% of what you say you want and you walk away from me and you attack me and you say i'm not ready to do anything, i honestly think people would scratch their head. so i think it is clear, the s

and all of us in the u.s. government, my colleagues at the state and departments who need to continue to work on a coordinated ongoing strategy, we will need to continue to think critically about trade to aid, updating our strategy to meet this additional moment. we have a powerful story to tell global economy story about the ways that a growing internet globally can increase economic growth and opportunity worldwide, and about the link between the growth and principles of openness, freedom, competition and private markets. one of the amazing things about this story is that is not theoretical. after two decades of global and internet growth driven by adheres to these pencils. and so in this context we think about foreign aid, i see real value in including as part of that sharing expertise and policy solutions with our counterparts and other countries. we have seen historically the success of this approach. it's how we got so many countries to agree to the world trade organization agreement fundamentally, reviv

pakistanis also have a narrative which is the americans use us and discarded. to use this against the russians in the 1980s, toss us out ostensibly because of nuclear proliferation in 1990. they use us in the war after 9/11 but after 2014 they're going to go away. you can count on. that is pakistanis think americans are hardwired to desert them. this set of stereotypes is intellectually lazy and very pernicious. one way to get out of this would be what hussein polk county, my counterpart suggest, time for fa divorce. or what others who shall remain nameless have said in the press, it's time for content, it's time to push this way. those two i think are not reasonable alternative. steve hadley has said remaining engaged with pakistan, there's no alternative to which. but i would argue that having a focus center on a bilateral relationship with something that's been a problem for us, what we need to do is to break out of this bilateralism, if you will, this sterile debate and look at the issues that are crosscutting, the issues that have to do with pakistan's rel
